In Oklahoma, the penalties for violent crimes can be severe, with potential consequences ranging from hefty fines to lengthy prison sentences. The exact penalties you may face depend on the specific charges, the circumstances of the crime, and your prior criminal record.

For example, in cases of murder or manslaughter, a conviction can lead to life imprisonment or even the death penalty in some circumstances. Armed robbery convictions can result in substantial prison sentences and significant fines. Charges related to rape and forceful sex crimes can lead to lengthy incarceration, sex offender registration, and other life-altering consequences.

How to Defend Against Violent Crime Charges

Facing violent crime charges can be daunting, but it's important to remember that everyone is entitled to a strong defense. Our skilled attorneys will explore various defense strategies tailored to your specific case, which may include:

  • Self-Defense: This could be a viable defense strategy if you acted in self-defense or to protect others from harm. We will thoroughly investigate the circumstances leading up to the incident to establish the justification for your actions.
  • Insufficient Evidence: In some cases, the prosecution may lack sufficient evidence to prove your guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. We will scrutinize the evidence against you and challenge any weaknesses in the case.
  • Alibi: Providing evidence that you were not at the crime scene when it occurred can be a compelling defense strategy. We will work to gather and present the necessary evidence to support your alibi.
  • Constitutional Violations: If your constitutional rights were violated during the arrest or investigation, we will seek to have any evidence obtained unlawfully suppressed, potentially leading to a dismissal of charges.
